I have wanted to create a 3D Game for some time now, so I thought this would be a good opportunity. One of the first programs I made when first learning programming was the basic Pong, so I decided to start with that.
The project was intended to run 3D Pong, but there was an error in regards to my Engine. There was an error in the use of d3dgetfromfile, which we were unable to solve, making our final program a half-functioning Engine.
In order to successfully run my game, I needed to use an Engine. I did not know how to connect my code to an Engine, so I attempted to create one myself.
The d3dgetfromfile was outdated, and we were unable to find a suitable replacement. This essentially stalled our program indefinitely.
Although my program was not successful, I am still proud of some minor achievements. The achievement I am most proud of is that I could successfully create the window.
From this experiment, I learned that I could not always rush through code like this, and would likely have to spend more time doing research.
I would like to continue this project on my own time, as this is a project that has intrigued for some time, so I will likely attempt to finish it on my own time. I would like to use the skills from this project in my future HackFree works.
